Mama I gave my heart to a man
I took my all and laid it in his hands
But he just stood there and looked at me
And said: I don’t really see
What good your heart is to me
Mama I fell for a man
I fell as hard as anyone can
But he just stood there and looked at me
As I’m lying in the dirt
And said: honey, I told you it would hurt
Mama I wrote him a song
But he told me that the key was all wrong
He said: it’s not a major G, it’s a minor E
And I don’t really see
What good your songs are to me
But mama he gave me a kiss
Then he took it back and dried it off my lips
And said: Excuse me honey, I think that I slipped
Mama I gave my heart to a man
I took my all and laid it in his hands
But he just stood there and looked at me
And said: honey, you’re a fool
'Cause I will never give your heart back to you
Yeah, I will never give your heart back to you
